I hear ya LOL. I only work 3 nights on shifts, so sometimes these are scattered throughout the week. And obviously during that time, the only thing on my mind is sleep. I bounce a LOT of different projects around (not just MV related) so time is, well, something that a clock tells... Haha!

Getting excited now. Gaia's Dream website for major updates will be up this week! And the playable demo will likely follow on-site!

I've given up on the graphics. For now at least. I've already designed several character sheets for Gaia (just have to patch them together into the actual charset), so don't have to worry about that. Instead, we're planning working on the story, fleshing out the plot. We have several ideas for...

I guess I can add another thing to be grateful for. I'm grateful I have a job, even if I detest the job. (It gives money in exchange for work!)

Been a bit "under the weather" lately - mostly job related. But have been still proceeding with tilesets. Here's a mapshot of what I have so far. The map isn't very good, but it's meant to showcase some of the graphics I've been working on. If anyone wants to - and can - help with the...

Officially looking for a new job now. Too bad game dev doesn't pay well quickly. Unless you have a good team, engine and strategy.

What I used to do for those times when random thoughts, inspiration, etc. would strike is never leave home without a pocket notepad to jot them down as notes for later interpretation. And then those dictaphones came out (people would often think I was a raving lunatic when talking into them)...

Back in my post-teen pre-adult years, during a particularly dark period in my life, a friend and I wrote a few stories together. I found them a few months ago - surprised I still had them on FLOPPY DISKS I kept!!! - and, man, were they grisly gory. I also found some stories I'd started writing...

Use Ogg Resizer. ;) It compresses the size up to 5 times. It's trialware (7 days), but costs around $25 for personal use. Not that bad for what it does. I downloaded this but haven't tried it on audio larger than 2Mb. Might be worth trying it to at least see if it makes a difference with your AI...

I'll be able to donate in the next few days to a week. :)

That's kinda what I'm doing for Otherworld, except there are 5 characters in total who unite. And considering I've only created 3 and put together only a rough draft of how they'll meet, along with some parallels along the way so when you play through as the various characters you get "hints" of...

I think I will, though when I don't know. :)

@sage I read ALL of Wendy and Phone. Brilliant! :D (I wonder if I can create my own - inspired! - using the same software I create my game stuff with.)

@Micro I hear ya. Over the years - ever since I first met my wife, in fact - I've grown to be quite open-minded when it comes to writing. Honestly, I think I have to be. We've collaborated on a number of stories and there have been some clashes, but it's now more a case of her having these cool...

Thanks, and completely agree. What was the most challenging part was aligning the doors just right so characters didn't walk through the walls LOL. Of course, I've added to them, but getting the hang of it. Hopefully, I'll have a complete tileset soon. I'm lucky in that I work three nights a...

I figured as much, but you know what? Hauptschnaps and Realschnaps kinda work (and according to Google Translate - useful or useless - Hauptschnaps is a party shot so...Yeah! Haha! ;) To be honest, I'd have preferred to be homeschooled. Never liked school as a rule. So if self-learning also...

I have major qualifications in English (language and literature) and writing, a few qualifications in psychology, and quite a few in computing (including web design). I'm doing online course right now for Javascript (the "advanced" stuff, I guess, like a refresher followup) and also one for the...

I can so relate. Generic copying and pasting then forgetting to change the teleport locations. Haha! I spent most of yesterday doing tilesets for both Otherworld and Gaia's Dream. Being a complete graphics noob when it comes to THESE kinds of things...What a @%&$@ nightmare! Still, I didn't do...
